of churros and good company
January 12, 2012People often ask me, as a young entrepreneur, do I ever get scared?
I tell them: Well, you know…Gotta plan well, gotta believe in yourself, gotta this, gotta that…life is perfect, yada yada yada.
In my heart: HELL YEAH, CAN’T YOU TELL I’M SWEATING?!!
I started my own business, taking on a huge responsibility at the age of 22. Vulnerable yet hopeful, strong yet scared, basically asking myself so many questions.
One year on, I can’t be any happier!! Well I can be I guess (you can’t measure happiness), but I am just so so thankful with everything God has given us. It’s not an easy ride obviously, but challenges are what you take of them. Positively or negatively, your call.
Besides the support from customers, designers and media, you know what I really think keeps this passion alive in me? My parents praying for my success and happiness everyday. How can I let them down?
I’m not being biased here, but the FV team works so bloody hard everyday and everyday I keep wanting to hug and kiss them until they sit far far away from me.
You guys have no idea. The FV team, some have come and go, but all of them give (or have given) it their all and no matter how tired we are, we still crack jokes, we still sit together like a family and have good food and we all brainstorm ridiculous ideas all the time. I’ve never worked in an outside company before, but if this is how colleagues interact everywhere out there, everyone should be smiling in this world!
We had a new year lunch and Dean the Founder treated us to a yummy feast. Gahhh 2012, we’re just so excited to jump into it, so many things we have planned for you, oh dear 2012.
There’s only room for expansion! So if you want to join the FV team, we’re actually looking for:
1) Graphic Designer
2) Website Programmer
Send us your resume, portfolio and expected remuneration to careers@fashionvalet.net.
Never know where life will take you.
Here’s to an awesome 2012 for all of us.
God, don’t stop watching over us, ok?
“What the hell is churros? That looks like a fancy cakoi with sugar, Or a long kuih samprit. In my kampung, I can get this for a few cents only.” – Nani.

Hi Vivy,
Congratulation to you & dean and Happy belated birthday to u.
I would like to apologize for my previous email as it seems so random,
besides I haven’t ‘put’ any appropriate introduction in that email..
The reason I’m asking you that kind of questions because I’m
considering myself to continue my study in either Project Management
or Real Estate Management. But I have degree in Aircraft Maintenance
which it is so not related to either one of them. So as I read thru
your blog and found out that you were a law student before and wanna
continue your study in real estate and right now being in fashion &
property development make me wonder how your parents react or atleast
how you went thru it and why you didn’t take the offer for MSc Real
Estate as you stated in your blog?
wooppsie..apologize for this lengthy email..but I would be happy to
receive some point of view from someone well known like you.
Thank you very much Vivy ๐
or i guess mat saleh went to kampung nani, and couldn’t pronounce cakoi very well, so they say its churros lah
what is dean drinking by the way? it looks so, organic.haha
Vivy!i looovvee your blog..funny, cute, touching, semua ada. Yg penting tiada langsung unsur2 riak eventhough you can show off everything yg u ada.
Tapi kan..pleasee..pleassee..share story camana Dean approach you, and macamana u jatuh hati dgn Dean..is it so easy ke mencabar ke..please share Vivy! Mesti cute kan!
VV..love u..love yr posting..love it all lah ๐
not meant for this comment to be posted.
just for the benefit of yourself and readers, i think the 3rd pic from the top should be cropped since it looks like a subtle advert for cigs and tiger beer. no hard feelings intended ๐
